If you don't explicitely want to, you don't need to compile gtk in order to compile against it under Windows. You can just grab the precompiled gtk+-libraries from: http://www2.arnes.si/~sopjsimo/gimp/stable.html Get "Gtk+2 for Windows" as well as the Developer files at the bottom of the page. (Isn't there a FAQ about this somewhere?) Possibly you also have to manually set up pkg-config to give the correct --cflags and --libs paths afterwards. I don't remember exactly what I did. (I also recommend creating an installation e.g. with the NSIS installer to make it really easy for your client.) Regards, Dov On Tue, May 11, 2004 at 12:15:47PM -0700, Jamil wrote: > Oops!
